When did Friedman say he voted for Stone as the winner? This was in his 30 thoughts this week:
Quote:
On the ballot: Filip Forsberg, Mike Hoffman. Forsberg got caught by Johnny Gaudreau and Stone in the scoring race, which hurt his chances to win. He’s going to be a cornerstone in Nashville for years. Twenty-six of Hoffman’s 27 goals were at even-strength. That’s Corey Perry/Ryan Getzlaf territory.
The vote went to: Aaron Ekblad, Johnny Gaudreau or Mark Stone. Can’t decide if Ekblad is going to be shafted because Gaudreau and Stone had huge finishes, or if he’ll win because Gaudreau and Stone split votes. I do feel his outstanding season is being forgotten. He’s two years younger than Gaudreau and three younger than Stone, at a position where it is harder to hide.
